Who is he? See @JohnWHuber
Annoying. Links are all broken but apparently he wrote a detailed memo about mass surveillance being legal in 2014.

With the announcement that #FelixSater will testify again but in a public hearing when can we expect to see transcripts of his private testimony that @DevinNunes requested the release of in Sept 2018? @AdamSchiff claimed he also wanted transcripts released. @ODNIgov #transparency
Here @AdamSchiff claimed @GOP was at fault for not releasing transcripts earlier so what’s the hold up Schiff? You’re in charge now, prove you mean it #ReleaseTheTranscripts
We deserve to know what was said behind closed doors before you parade him to the public.

Who gets more respect as our @POTUS again🧐
A dozen people stood on the runway to greet President Obama in Hanoi, two dozen ceremonial guards marched to greet President Trump.
A bouquet from the ceremonial flower girl vs greeting from military and diplomatic leaders hmmm tough one🤣

UK Government announces full ban of Hizballah as a terrorist organisation gov.uk/government/new…
Home Sec @sajidjavid: "Hizballah is continuing in its attempts to destabilise the fragile situation in ME & we are no longer able to distinguish between their already banned military wing and the political party... I have taken the decision to proscribe the group in its entirety"
Foreign Sec @Jeremy_Hunt: "We cannot however be complacent when it comes to terrorism – it is clear the distinction between Hizballah’s military and political wings does not exist"

A quick THREAD on the contradictions of the home office and @sajidjavid over the stripping of #ShamimaBegum's British citizenship.
It's a MUST READ to see just how @theresa_may's old department's #hostileenvironment appears to discriminate against BAME people... 1/n
So currently there are international laws which state that when a citizen commits a crime in a foreign country, that country has the right to deport the person to their home country. This is accepted, and not a contentious issue. 2/15
In fact, the British gov't loves using these powers.
It regularly deports British residents of Caribbean descent. People who moved to Britain as toddlers and have British kids have been taken away from their families and sent 'back' to the Caribbean. 3/15

Brexit already doing massive harm to the UK. Over 200 examples of job losses, lost investment, police & army prepping, companies moving assets to the EU or redomiciling. Meanwhile, the Government burns through £billions chasing a nutty no deal Brexit. Real life, not project fear!
The Government has spent £4.2 billion pounds on Brexit preparations (£2.2 billion in previous Budgets, plus an additional £2 billion in the most recent Budget.) 1/205

EU citizens will be obliged to register to stay in the UK after Brexit (deadline is June 2021). The registration system, which cost the Government £175 million, will have to cope with over 3,500,000 applications, or several thousand a day on average. 2/205

Here are 180 factual, fully-sourced examples of the impact Brexit is already having on the UK. Jobs going, investment drying up, companies moving assets to the EU, or redomiciling. All happening as Government burns through £billions chasing a no deal Brexit it doesn't have to.
